When you organize a TODAY, the first thing that comesto mind is: « Where do I want the next one to be? »To answer that question, there is a thin balance between enjoyment and relevance.That balance that gonna give space to my sensitivity, to my creativity.

After Cape Town and Paris, that question came naturally to my mind.I began to understand what was criteria to focus on, regarding the selection of a city.

I remember saying to myself: « It needs to be big enough to take advantage of its urban agitation and diversity of places. But human-scaled also, so I can walk around, meet people and experience as much as I can. But too small, and Iwon't find anything to capture at night. »Internal struggle, you got me!

Three years before, I went to Amsterdam. I really enjoyed roaming in Amsterdam’s street: Cruising on my bike, on a boat, to discover that surprising city. That feeling was close to the one that I feel meandering during my TODAY. And, as I was living in Cape Town, I thought that many people back there would enjoy the TODAY/AMSTERDAM exhibition.
